Masters Of War by Bob Dylan

Come, you masters of war
You (1)________ build the big guns
You that build the death planes
You (2)________ build all the bombs
You that hide (3)____________ walls
You that (4)________ behind desks
I just-a want you to know
I can see (5)______________ your masks

You that (6)__________ done nothin'
But build to destroy
You play with my world
Like it's your little toy
You put a gun in my hand
And you hide from my eyes
And you turn and run (7)______________ when the fast (8)______________ fly

Like Judas of old
You lie and deceive
A world war can be won
You want me to believe
But I see through your eyes
And I see (9)______________ your brain
Like I see through the water (10)________ (11)________ down my drain

You fasten all the triggers
For the others to fire
Then you set back and watch
While the death (12)__________ gets higher
You (13)________ in your mansion
While young people's blood
Flows out of their bodies and is (14)____________ in the mud

You've thrown the (15)__________ fear
That can ever be hurled
Fear to (16)__________ children
Into the world
For threatenin' my baby
Unborn and unnamed
You ain't worth the blood (17)________ (18)________ in (19)________ veins

How much do I know
A-to (20)________ out of turn?
You might say (21)________ I'm young
You (22)__________ say I'm unlearned
But there's one thing I know
Though I'm younger than you
That even Jesus would never forgive (23)________ you do

Let me ask you one question
Is your money that good?
Will it buy you forgiveness?
Do you think that it could?
An' I think you will find
When your (24)__________ takes its toll
All the money you made will never buy back your soul

An' I hope (25)________ you die
And your death will come soon
I'll follow your casket
On a pale afternoon
And I'll watch (26)__________ you're lowered
Down to your death bed
And I'll stand (27)________ your (28)__________ till I'm sure that you're dead
